Blackburn Oratorical Powers.

Picked up By The Chicago Herald.
Speaking of the coIloqual powers of
Senator Joe Blackburn. of Kentucky"
says First Assistant Postmasr General
Stevenson, Il am reminded of story.
When Joe and | were Young fellows We
were in school together, and it happened
that two of our friends had falling cut
aud concluded to settle it according to
the code, with Joe and myself as seconds.
Somehow, Joe had the reputation of be-
ing posted on such affairs, and when all
arrangements had been completed, and
were on the ground, We gave him full
power of direction. We tossed for choice
of position, and my side won. The sun
was just rising, and | placed my man
with his back to it. Joe saw the disad-
vantage OF his principal, and began to
do little talking for some other arrange
mont. He went into the history of duell-
ing cases and giving statistics; he ex-
planned the courtesy of the code; he ar
gued every point of honor, and so on,
with such force and continuance that
when we finally got ready to resume war;
like operations the sun had gone down,
and it was SO dark that our men couldn't
see each other at ten PAGES. OF course
Joe was as much surprised as any of us,
but it put an end to the duel, and our
principals never renewed it,

"'Well, old Teller, said /, as | got
down and went round to the back of
the wagon, you've had a good ride,
! haven't YET?
"Who are you he cried, and his
voice trembled little, too, as he asked
the question.
az am the man you tried to shoot
told him.
"Where am II Let me out p he
yelled.
"Look here, said |, we've come to
a safe stopping place, and mind ye I've
got revolver ready for ye the moment
ye show yourself. Now lay quiet
"By this time the two hostlers had
come to see what was the matter, and
explained it all to them. After this |
got one of them to run and find the
sheriff and tell him what | believed I'd
got for him. The first streaks of day.
light were just coming up and in half
an hour it would be broad daylight. In
less than that time the sheriff came and
two other men with him. | told him
the whole story in few words, exhibit
ted the handbil's had for him. and then
he made tor the cart. He told the chap
inside who he was, and that if he made
the least resistance he'd be dead man.
But mind you, the sheriff didn't tell
him the suspicious we had about him.
Then slipped the iron wrench out,
and, as | let the door down, the fellow
made spring. | caught him by the
ankle and he came down on his face
and in a moment more the officers had
him. 1t was now daylight and the mo-
ment | saw the chap | recognized him.
He was the very man | had suspected
and his fine black clothes were pretty
well covered with lint and dirt. He
was marched off to the lookup, and l
told the sheriff | should remain in town
all day.
cater breakfast the sheriff came
down to the tavern and told me that |
had caught the very bird, and that if |
would remain until the next morning,
should have the reward of $500 which
had been offered. | found my goods
all safe, paid the express agent for
bringing them from Indianapolis, and
went to work to stow them away in my
cart. | found the bullet holes IN the
top of my vehicle just as | expected.
They were in line, about five inches
apart, and had | been where usually
sit, two of them would have hit me
about the small of the back and passed
upward, for they were sent with heavy
charge of powder and his pistol was
heavy one.
"On the next morning the sheriff
called upon me and paid me 5000 in
gold, for he had made himself sure that
he had got the villain. After an early
dinner | set out, and am now ready to
lay up for the winter. found a letter
in the office at Portsmouth for me from
the sheriff of Hancock county, and he
informed me that Mr.. Hardhead is now
in prison for life'
So ended the peddlcr's story. In the
morning had the curiosity to look at
his cart and | found the four bullet
holes just as he had told us, though
they were now plugged up with phial
corks. Whey came out while | was
looking and showed me the prints of
the villains feet upon the cart. They
were plain and must have been given
with great 1orce.-BoSt0n Budget.

1t is matter of regret that in introduce

The reduction of internal revenue and The

the burden of home manufacturers. E--
peCially is this the case with treen's iug,iS-
F2oWer and BoScheeS German Syrup, as the
reduction of thirty-sX cents per dozen, has
been added TO increase the size of the bot

size. The AugUst Flolcer for Dyspepsia and
Liver complaint, and the GerIgaH Syrup for
Cough and Lung troubles, have perhaps,
the largest sale of any medicines in the
